Chapter 376 The Employees Are Crazy!
As the first step of game construction, a general world view structure must be the first step.
With the framework of the worldview, the VR team can then carry out preliminary image design, then 3D modeling, and then VR conversion.
Of course, another crucial step in the original game is the game mechanics.
Whether it is a turn-based game or a card-drawing game, this kind of thing naturally needs to have a qualitative first.
And “Apocalypse World” can completely skip this step, because the game is very simple, it is an ordinary MMORPG game.
This kind of game basically allows any employee of the shrimp game company to make it casually.
Wait until you turn around and set up a special group to carry out the numerical design of the game to ensure that there are no bugs.
Therefore, the construction of the world view is the first step in the formation of “Apocalypse World”, and Shen Yifan also lived up to the expectations. At the request of Zhang Yan, he quickly completed the design of the Novice Village.
Immediately, other departments also received this design and began to invest in the formal design of the game according to the design.
If you are starting from scratch, it will definitely take a lot of time to make such a grand RPG game.
In the history of games, there have been too many RPG games, and the design team can learn from many materials.
Therefore, the construction work in the early stage of the game went very smoothly.
This is not to say that “Apocalypse World” is to sew all other RPG games together. If it is designed like this, the workload of the game team will be much less, and the production process of the game will be faster.
Originally, MMORPG elements are not the real selling point of “Apocalypse World”, but VR virtual reality technology.
As the saying goes, good steel is used on the edge of the blade, Zhang Yan still hopes that the employees he accepts can devote all their energy, time and financial resources to building the game presentation effect.
Of course, the playability of the game must also be guaranteed, but the playability of an MMORPG game is that there are too many old-timers to learn from the experience, so it does not need to spend too much thought.
Zhang Yan has spared no effort in game development, and as for financial resources, he has invested countless amounts.
Although Zhang Yan has a lot of assets under his name, he is basically responsible for his own profits and losses, bringing Zhang Yan a huge amount of income, and there is no need for Zhang Yan to invest more funds.
As for Zhang Yan’s billion-dollar venture fund, it can be said that there is basically no other use for it other than investing in games.
As a result, Zhang Yan’s salary for the game development team was three times higher than what the team members originally thought. As for the equipment, it has reached the top level.
Every month, Zhang Yan, the billion-dollar startup fund, can basically invest as much as 500 million in game development.
Such a large investment made Yang Tianhua and the others feel a little nervous.
His own boss is trying his best to rush into this game. If this game really hits the street, then Zhang Yan may lose all the money he earned from “Meteor Soul” and “Battle God”.
As Zhang Yan’s good employees, with Zhang Yan’s generous remuneration, they certainly couldn’t let Zhang Yan fall into such a big trouble in this matter.
Yes, Zhang Yan is not short of money, Benlei car company’s monthly profit is said to be as high as ten digits.
But people in the whole industry are watching Zhang Yan. If Zhang Yan’s “Apocalypse World” really hits the street, losing money is a trivial matter, and people in the industry are ridiculed for being young and taking big steps. ?
Based on the principle of thinking for Zhang Yan, Yang Tianhua and Xu Hengxiu were almost crazy, and took the whole company to work overtime to design this “Apocalypse World”.
Zhang Yan saw that his employees worked so hard, and the bonus was also turned over and over again for everyone.
Now the employees of Shrimp Games basically get about 150K every month, which is equivalent to the general manager of a company.
With such a heavy reward, who would dare to hold back Zhang Yan?
It can be said that all employees came before dawn, worked overtime until late at night, and worked 1.5 times as much as before.
Moreover, on Saturday and Sunday, everyone did not mention overtime pay, and they all volunteered and put themselves into work.
Such a high-intensity work is a torture for anyone, but with their loyalty to Zhang Yan and the high salary in return, none of the employees felt tired.
On the contrary, everyone is doing great things without eating or sleeping, which makes everyone seem to have found the meaning of their existence, and wake up full of energy every morning.
Zhang Yan takes all the efforts of the employees in his heart.
He is not an unscrupulous boss, and he is well aware of the current situation, and it is definitely not something that can be solved just by giving bonuses to employees.
If everyone worked so hard, if he died suddenly, then Zhang Yan would be very guilty.
Therefore, when everyone in the shrimp company was thinking about how to make such a game well, Zhang Yan thought about how to get the group of employees who are forgetting to eat and sleep to go back to rest.
Zhang Yan has used many methods, such as canceling overtime pay, but no one cares, so he still stays to work overtime.
What about overtime pay? If you don’t want it, you don’t need it. Anyway, you gave us a bonus of more than 100,000 yuan. Do we still care about this overtime pay?
Later, Zhang Yan called the company directly at the end of get off work. As a result, the employees were better. They went home and used their computer to work overtime silently. The next day, they copied it with a USB flash drive and continued to work.
Anyway, what happened to Zhang Yan could not stop everyone’s enthusiasm for work.
In the end, there was really no other way, Zhang Yan could only hold a meeting to inform everyone that overtime was allowed, and he would still pay the overtime pay as usual, and it would still be doubled.
However, everyone must get off work before ten o’clock in the evening, and at the same time guarantee half an hour of exercise time in the company every day.
Even in order to urge employees to exercise, Zhang Yan also asked people to make a program. Everyone went to the treadmill in the company’s gym every day to check in and run on the treadmill for half an hour to pass.
If anyone does not exercise for three days, they will be fired immediately, and there will be no negotiation!
Zhang Yan made such a mandatory request that the employees restrained themselves, leaving get off work early every day for a period of time, and at the same time ensuring that they did not fall behind in exercise.
As a result, Zhang Yan was a little relieved about the health of his employees.
